Composite

Composite allows media and metadata stored in the Plex Media Server (PMS) to be viewed and played using the Kodi 16+ interface.

  Kodi 16+

  • Kodi 17+: Enable - Settings -> System -> Add-ons -> Unknown Sources
  1. Download repository
     • Kodi 16-18: repository.anxdpanic-x.x.x.zip
     • Kodi 19: repository.anxdpanic-x.x.x+matrix.1.zip
  2. Install from zip file (repository.anxdpanic-x.x.x.zip)
  3. Install from repository (anxdpanic Add-on Repository)

• Usage

  Composite should work "out of the box" in most cases, as the default allows for automatic server discovery. If this doesn't work, then discovery can be switched off, and a manually entered hostname or IP address can be used.

  If you are watching remotely, or on a bandwidth limited network, switch on Transcoding to reduce the media quality to one that works best for you.

• Kodi 18+ Library

  To add Composite (Plex) media to your library, add a video source for movies/tv shows.

  • Will not have support for most Plex features.

  Sources

  • Movies: plugin://plugin.video.composite_for_plex/library/movies/
    • Choose information provider: Local information only
    • Movies are in separate folders that match the movie title: Disabled
    • Scan recursively: Disabled
  • TV Shows: plugin://plugin.video.composite_for_plex/library/tvshows/
    • Choose information provider: Local information only
    • Selected folder contains a single TV show: Disabled

  Instead of Steps 4-5 add the appropriate plugin:// url from the sources above
  Instead of Step 9 use Local information only
